Abstract

The present application discloses systems, methods, and computer-readable media that utilize computing devices to model multi-outcome transportation-value metrics that account for spatio-temporal trajectories across locations, times and other contextual features, and then utilize computer networks to dispatch provider devices to locations based on the multi-outcome transportation-value metrics. Moreover, the disclosed systems can utilize these multi-outcome transportation-value metrics and/or other models to manage and utilize dynamic transportation dispatch modes to more efficiently align provider devices and requestor devices across computer networks. For instance, the disclosed system can dispatch a provider device based on a discounted multi-outcome transportation-value metric. Furthermore, the disclosed system can dynamically determine prioritized dispatch mode provider device slots, fill provider device slots based on performance metrics, and then select provider device from between a prioritized transportation dispatch mode and another transportation dispatch mode based on prioritization metrics corresponding to a transportation request.
